Build cBots in C# and compile them to .algo entirely on Linux via the official cTrader.Automate NuGet package + 'dotnet build' — no Windows and no cTrader desktop app. Run/backtest headless through Spotware's official cTrader console Docker image. Includes: - src/SampleCBot: example SMA-crossover cBot (SDK-style net6.0 class library) - scripts/install-dotnet.sh: root-free local .NET SDK install (~/.dotnet) - scripts/build.sh: dotnet build -> dist/<ProjectName>.algo, with a workaround for cTrader.Automate naming the .algo after the project's parent folder - scripts/run-console.sh: wrapper over ghcr.io/spotware/ctrader-console - docs/research-findings.md: sourced research; .algo verified as a proprietary 'algo'-magic container (not a ZIP); build verified end to end on Linux

# Run / backtest a compiled .algo headlessly using Spotware's OFFICIAL cTrader CLI
|
|
# Docker image — no cTrader desktop GUI, no Windows. Available since cTrader 5.4.
|
|
#
|
|
# This is a thin wrapper: it mounts your built .algo files (dist/) into the
|
|
# container at /mnt/Robots and forwards all arguments to the cTrader console.
|
|
#
|
|
# Discover the exact subcommands/flags for your image version first:
|
|
#
|
|
# ./scripts/run-console.sh --help
|
|
#
|
|
# Then backtest or run, e.g. (flag names follow the container's --help output):
|
|
#
|
|
# ./scripts/run-console.sh backtest --robot SmaCrossOverBot.algo \
|
|
# --symbol EURUSD --period h1 --start 2024-01-01 --end 2024-06-01 \
|
|
# --balance 10000
|
|
#
|
|
# Live trading additionally needs cTrader ID credentials passed to the console.
